One flew out of the tile roof on Hamilton Ave -- across from the defunct Café Verona. I forget the name of the hotel that has the tile roof, but it is directly across the street from the Café. If you look up at the roof, two tiles have white wash. I had been downtown on April 13 as well and seen no swifts. The second Swift was at Forest and High--where Jim Yurchenco recommended looking. The building they may be nesting in or using as a roost is at the NE corner. The store Bob & Bob is on the first floor. As I walked up Forest toward High, a swift flew out from behind the tree in front of the building. The tree is only half-way up the building in terms of height, which I thought was interesting. I spent 15 minutes checking various openings and saw no sign of any white-wash. So as Jim says, perhaps another nesting location.
